The Art of Walking Bass: A Method for Acoustic or Electric Bass (Musicians Institute Press) (Paperback) Review

The cd is very nice, well recorded, bass on left.

The methods I've used and some others i've heard and wondered about are clearly explained here with examples.

Recording is with acoustic upright bass, great sound.

Tabs help to get fingering and double check where I am before my reading catches up with my intentions to play better. ;)

Insane value, this kind of material easily is worth 3 times as much.

I can apply these techniques of leading, chromatics, and the exapmles of the combinations of these and other approaches without knowing how to read since i'm good at patterns, so this is very valuable to me.
